Let’s be honest: this isn’t the world we were promised

Sustainability was supposed to be about justice. Too often, it has been reduced to branding, checklists, and silence when it matters most.

Many of us entered this work with urgency and idealism. The deeper we go, the clearer it becomes: the systems built to manage impact are often led by those most protected from experiencing it.

And still, we stay. Not because the system works, but because we know the work matters. Because we have learned how to move strategically, even inside contradiction.

NOT.CHARITY was built to

  • Embed sustainability leadership where it is most needed

  • Help companies align values with operations

  • Focus on material issues in business models and supply chains rather than hiding them behind philanthropy

I’ve spent the last decade managing complex, cross-sector work at the intersection of sustainability, human rights, and strategic partnerships. I’ve aligned global stakeholders, developed impact strategies, built funding pipelines, and translated institutional goals into real, operational outcomes.

My experience spans NGOs, corporate responsibility teams, and multilateral initiatives—often in roles that required both systems thinking and a clear read on power, language, and risk. I’ve led the development of board-facing strategy, investor-ready insights, and partnership models built to last past the press release.

NOT.CHARITY is the structure I created for the kind of work that doesn’t fit into standard job descriptions—work that’s principled, adaptive, and built to hold complexity without compromise.
